The voting in this last election showed a tremendous lack of adult maturity. Consequences (i.e., an appropriate reaction to the horrific record and dire effects of idiotic policies) were not considered--JUST like a child's thinking would reflect. Rather than exhibit adult abstract thinking--"If this, then that" and being able to follow lines of THINKING which would reveal the bad consequences of bad policies being followed--Obama voters exhibited childlike thinking based on emotions and concrete thinking--"I gotta phone!!", "He's better looking than Romney!", etc.

Keeping your offspring on Obamacare until the age of 26--when they should already be launched into an independent life of their own--echoes the encouragement of dependency and childlikeness. As do all the government handouts, like a sharp spike in the numbers receiving food stamps (and from what I've personally observed in grocery lines, a lot of those food stamps are not needed by that particular recipient, well-dressed and buying luxury foods). Dependency is like being a child, dependent on others. Independence is a hallmark of adulthood.

Apparently we have become a nation of Peter Pans, as evidenced by the reelection of the most unqualified imposter dolt one could possibly find on planet Earth.

God save the republic, for surely the majority electorate is not up to the task

Of all the things "conservatives" pick up on as evidence of dependency and cheating the system, this is the stupidest. Guess what E? This ain't part of obamacare and it is NOT a handout. I have my 23 yo daughter on my company healthcare and I pay almost DOUBLE versus just me and my wife. I repeat, it is NOT FREE. Oh, and she can't find a job paying more than $10 an hour and she is fighting hard against cancer.

At least find a decent issue to raise concerns about regarding barry obama---there's a million of them out there. This is the kind of thing people rightly point out about conservatives and how "mean" they are. And please, no lectures about Constitutionality, that ship has sailed.
